It’s football season and the big game is just around the corner. If you’re stressing about whether your favorite team will take home the championship this year, distract yourself by planning the important things, like what you will be eating during the big game!

• Papalote Salsa: This locally produced salsa will be a favorite while watching the big showdown this year. Featured on Throwdown with Bobby Flay, Papalote’s Roasted Tomato Salsa defeated the Iron Chef. Lucky for us, this roasted salsa is not only irresistible, but it’s local, too — and it’s a staple at Papalote Mexican Grill, located in the heart of the Mission district in San Francisco.

• Jimmy T’s Barbecue Sauce: This local barbecue line is one of our favorites! It was created by Chef Jimmy T., who is locally based in Sacramento and can often be found passing out samples of his barbecue goodness in our stores. Keep an eye out for him and be sure to get a taste of this delicious sauce!

• Wing-Time Buffalo Wing Sauce: Consider yourself a wing connoisseur? Instead of making the trip to Upstate New York — the birthplace of Buffalo wings — grab a bottle of finger-licking Wing-Time Buffalo Wing Sauce! These Buffalo-style chicken wing sauces have traditional flavor profiles, and they are also sugar free and gluten free. We prefer the Medium spice, but if you like to live on the wild side, try the Hot!
